Stajan suffered the knee injury in a knee-on-knee collision with Jared Tinordi on Tuesday. There is no news on the nature of the injury, but it will keep him out for at least one month, potential longer. The original reports were that he might have suffered ligament damage, but that timeline does not suggest such an injury.

Stajan was injured in a knee-on-knee collision with Habs' defenseman Jared Tinordi. Stajan was in pain and had to be helped off of the ice, which is not a good sign that he will be back soon.

Early reports are that Stajan likely suffered ligament damage, which would sideline him for a lengthy period of time. With that news, it is not surprising that he was not on the ice this morning. While a severe knee injury is not confirmed, that is what it sounds like at this time.

Stajan missed the last three games for personal reasons, but will be back in tonight vs. the Kings. He has 13 goals and 18 assists in 60 games.

T.J Galliardi will get back into the lineup with Stajan out. Stajan missed eight games in March because of the death of his newborn son. There is no word if this absence is related to that tragedy.

Stajan has missed the last eight games after losing his newborn son earlier in the month. Expect him to be in the lineup on Tuesday vs. the Sabres. He has 10 goals and 13 assists (23 points) in 52 games this season.

Stajan and his wife lost their newborn son who was born on March 3. He has missed the last four games and there is no word when he plans to return to the team. With the Flames way out of the playoff race and with the unimaginable grief that Stajan and his family must be dealing with, there is no reason for him to rush back to the lineup.

The Flames will get Brian McGrattan back in the lineup tonight, but expect Mikael Backlund to move to the top-line to replace Stajan.

Stajan has seven goals and 10 assists in 41 games this season. The 30-year-old centre from Mississauga, Ont., made his debut in 2002 with the Toronto Maple Leafs before being traded to Calgary in 2010. Stajan has 116 goals and 212 assists in 693 career games.

Stajan hasn't played since the season opener. He will skate on a line with Curtis Glencross and Lee Stempniak vs. the Stars tonight.
